Shaw Place Reserve
Do you love walking, running, cycling or catching the winter sunshine around the Ōtūmoetai coastline? You might be familiar with a short strip of pathway by Shaw Place Reserve that might've been leaving your shoes a little damp from the surface water.
To help drain the excess water, we're adding some drainage channels and piping in the reserve to move the water in the right direction - and away from your shoes.
We'll have safety fences around the site for a couple of weeks while we make these upgrades and let the grass grow back. Plus, there are no closures in place so you can still enjoy the fresh air.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
